Turkish schools to stop teaching evolution, official says

[Thoughtful Trolli]

Surrendering your principles to avoid fights is the fastest way to become someone's slave.

Actually the fasted slave creation comes from telling something they can't question something. Like how we tell people they can't question evolution.

If you read books like Algeny and discover that a fly can't be brought to lower than five bristles or above 17 bristles no matter how many generations you reproduce them, slowly realize that even though you could breed a legless dog, you'll never pop a cat or snake out of a dog, and that while Charles Darwin's most prominent book The Origin of Species describes a very real adaptation phenomenon, it cannot actually say the origin of a new species aside from suggesting mutations in genetics, which to this day we still have no idea how they happen (bad read on DNA or outside interference from natural cosmic radiation or what?) you might begin to realize the only absurdity is something everyone keeps telling you cannot be debated.

Especially if it's only barely been a topic since a century ago.

NATO member and EU candidate state right there.

You realize a sizable chunk of the US population feels the same way about evolution too...right? The only difference between my country and theirs is that here the Republicans haven't managed to implement the theocracy some of them so desperately want.
